      Hello,
      because of a stupid mistake i had to reinstall my raspberry pi.

      I used these instructions: https://docs.triggercmd.com/#/./InstallRaspberryPi

      But if i try to install with
      sudo apt install ./triggercmdagent_1.0.1_all.deb
      i get the follogwing errors:

      Get:1 /home/hannibal/downloads/triggercmdagent_1.0.1_all.deb triggercmdagent all 1.0.1 [22.2 MB]
(Reading database ... 91248 files and directories currently installed.)

Error: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

      If i read that right the installation file is corrupted, so i tried several times to download the file, but the error is the same every time.

      So either the file is corrupted or i am doing something wrong, anyone any idea how what to do?

      I hope this is all ok to read, english is not my strong side.

      Greetings Hannibal

        @Hannibal, thank you for reporting it! I tested it and ran into the same problem at first, but it's fixed now. Please download it again and try the install again.

            @Hannibal said in Error while installing the triggercmdagent:

            Notice: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/hannibal/downloads/triggercmdagent_1.0.1_all.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)

            Copy/paste that into ChatGPT to know why, but you can safely ignore that "Notice". Basically it means the _apt user doesn't have access to your user's home directory where the .deb file is, so it's using root to access it instead.

            It looks like the agent is installed now, so you can move on to the next steps:

            triggercmdagent
( Paste in your token, and press ENTER. )
( Press CTRL-C to quit. )
/usr/share/triggercmdagent/app/src/installdaemon.sh

            The triggercmdagent command should prompt you for a token which you can copy/paste from the Instructions page while logged in at https://www.triggercmd.com

              @Russ Sorry, was away for a few weeks.

              I tried again today, but there is a new problem if i try to use the following:

              node /usr/lib/triggercmdagent/resources/app/src/agent.js --console
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1520
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module '/usr/lib/triggercmdagent/resources/app/src/agent.js'

    at node:internal/main/run_main_module:33:47 {
  code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
  requireStack: []
}

Node.js v24.18.0

              So i looked into the folder, and it does not exist. edit(The whole folder)
              So i thought i did not install the agent and tried to install again with

              sudo apt install ./triggercmdagent_1.0.1_all.deb
Note, selecting 'triggercmdagent' instead of './triggercmdagent_1.0.1_all.deb'
triggercmdagent is already the newest version (1.0.1).
Summary:
  Upgrading: 0, Installing: 0, Removing: 0, Not Upgrading: 0

              So it is installed and it is not installed?

              Any other idea what could be the problem?

              Greetings
              Hannibal

                @Hannibal, I see the problem. I told you /usr/lib/triggercmdagent which is the path on Ubuntu, not Raspberry Pi. Sorry about that. I corrected the "next steps" above to match the instructions here.

                It should look like this when you run the triggercmdagent command as root:

                pi@fe5978dee0e5:~$ sudo su -
root@fe5978dee0e5:~# triggercmdagent
Run installdaemon.sh to install the triggercmdagent daemon so it runs during boot
Daemon install: false
No token exists.  Login to request one.
prompt: token:

                Then run this to install the background agent that will startup as root during boot:
                /usr/share/triggercmdagent/app/src/installdaemon.sh

                Then edit /root/.TRIGGERcmdData/commands.json and make sure your commands have ground = background.
